ROSE QUARTZ & SERENITY - COLOUR OF THE YEAR 2016

A softer take on colour for 2016: For the first time, the blending of two shades – Rose Quartz and Serenity are chosen as the PANTONE Colour of the Year

Joined together, Rose Quartz and Serenity demonstrate an inherent balance between a warmer embracing rose tone and the cooler tranquil blue, reflecting connection and wellness as well as a soothing sense of order and peace.

A double serving of his-and-hers cotton candy. That’s one way to describe this year’s colour pick. Both colours as soft and sweet as a nursery: palest pink and baby blue, aka Rose Quartz and Serenity.

It’s all about the blend, declared Pantone. Choosing two hues with gender symbolism reflects the gender blur and fluidity that is taking place in fashion and the culture at large.

WHAT IS THE PANTONE COLOR OF THE YEAR?

A symbolic color selection; a color snapshot of what we see taking place in our culture that serves as an expression of a mood and an attitude.

Rose Quartz is a persuasive yet gentle tone that conveys compassion and a sense of composure. Serenity is weightless and airy, like the expanse of the blue sky above us, bringing feelings of respite and relaxation even in turbulent times.

I love how Pantone highlights colors yearly even if they are colors we already know and wear, lol the fashion world. Nice post, I recently had a post on how to wear the pantone colors of 2016 according to your skin tone.Thanks for stopping by my blog.xx.Modavracha | Fashion and Lifestyle Blog
